A seated man in red-orange clothing and layered gold and beaded necklaces sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne draped with a tiger-print cloth, watching a large open fire rising in the foreground. Several pieces of wood and small offerings sit on a tray near the flame, and a dark figure's arm reaches toward the fire. The setting is a dim hall with a framed picture on the wall behind. The scene resembles a homa fire ritual. The seated man shows long swept-back hair and a rudraksha-style bead necklace, a combination of cues for a person appearance, though the image is dark and the identification is uncertain.
